The Abandon

American soldier Miles Willis (Jonathan Rosenthal) is fighting in the Middle East. He is shot. A bright light shines down and he finds himself in a cube room with no exit.

This is drawing heavily from Cube, but it doesn't have the fun of a good mystery. It feels known and random. The variable gravity is interesting for awhile, but Miles annoyed me for not wearing his helmet. It's the first thing that I would do. I would also try to grab all the stuff before they come flying at my head. This doesn't have the mystery solving fun and the final reveal falls a bit flat. It's no sin to copy Cube, but this doesn't do much with it.

I'm a huge fan of single location movies like Buried or Last Call. However the dialogue in the first 30 minutes of the movie doesn't make any sense. Only after the main character gains a bit of trust with the other party does it start to make sense, and the character development starts, but by then, I had lost a lot of the interest.

It did pick up well enough for me to finish watching the whole movie. Even if it doesn't bring a lot of new things to the table, it's still a decent enough movie that keeps you guessing what the hell is going on (even though that's never the real point of these movies). Don't expect it to be explained to you -- the ending will keep you guessing, and that's fine.

The sci-fi bits and the very few effects of the movie are quite good, but the attempt to mathematically explain what's going is absolutely nonsensical.

The movie feels like they threw Cube, Buried and Last Call into a mixer, but didn't add any other ingredients and forgot to blend or shake it. Still an entertaining watch if you're a fan of the genre.

The concept is definetly interesting, and the main actor is incredible with it's expressions. The writting is enough to keep someone entertained, but not to satisfy.

On top of this, the set is always the same. After a bit of the movie, you realize it really is everything the movie has to offer. Some dialogue, some small setbacks, a problem and a guy stuck in a cube. Nothing more.

If you're an enthusiast of action or science fiction movies, this is definetly not for you. The initial scene is a trap that makes you think the movie is going to be loaded with war scenes, and the ending is as underwhelming and expected as it can be. You will most likely finish this movie disappointed.

This is a very bad mixture between "Cube" and "Buried". I don´t understand why nobody watched this film; only 75 votes, only one critic (now two with mine), and the critic of 10... It is a production of 2022... I don´t Know, but It looks very strange.

Copy of Rodrigo Cortese´s "Buried", with a bigger set like in "Cube", with very poor acting and a screenplay that could be better, but the directing and the acting are so bad that you just want to stop the picture at the very beginnig, somethig like in the first 20 minutes.

I am not gonna tell You anything about the picture, no spoiling; but I warned you! It is a waste of time. And I am sure that it started with the votes of the production friends and families, but now, with ordinary people like us, with nothing to do with the picture, It will go to 4 stars, with a very few days. Yesterday it was 8.1; today with 20 votes more, 7.4... wait two weeks or four, and you will see...

This type of strange products, coming from years away and nobody watching it... I don´t now... be very careful of those movies with such a poor votes and a big rating. Just wait a month before watching it. Then return to see the rating and you wil discover that It is under 5.

1 star out of 10.

I watched this movie because I like escape room style of movies where you can solve riddles and root for the people entrapped. But with this main character, it was really hard to feel any empathy or root for him because the character is highly dumb, loud and pathetic. I disluked him so much, I was looking forward to him getting more hurt or dying. Whoever wrote this charecter and his ridiculous lines should het another job. Also, this movie brings nothing new to the game besides being dumb, it taked the Idea of cube and puts it into a war scenario, thats all. Save your time and do something more fun like watching paint dry.
